Integrated Primary Care and Mental Health

Purpose/Goals: 

This planning project included practitioners and organizational stakeholders.  The goal was to develop viable, evidence-based practice models that would enhance children’s mental health services in the primary care setting. The project was instrumental in bringing together stakeholders, holding a statewide symposium with a national speaker, sharing best practices and assembling criteria for successful integrated projects.  This information is now being used by the Department of Health and Human Services to create structures and reimbursement systems which will facilitate project development statewide.

Below are several project-related documents, including surveys of primary care providers and mental health professionals, as well as a list of current integrated primary care and mental health projects around Maine.
